One year and I feel like a failure.....

I got the Lap band on August 19th 2009. The reason why I got it is because, On October 16th 2008 I was let go from my job, where I've been at for 9+yrs. I felt like I needed a life changing, change. I've been big all my life and I need and wanted something new. So, I decided to get the lap band. The first 4 months went good.... But as time went on my confidence got lower and lower. I couldn't find a job and I stopped caring.... As time went on not caring turned into something more, I was

At a stand still...

I went to the doctor to get a fill, and she wouldn't do it.. I've been maintaining the same weight for the past 2 visits. I'm at a stand still. She was tell me about shrinking my stomach. By going on a liquid diet for 2 days... By doing that, your stomach will get smaller. Did anyone here about that?..... I want to do it but I want to hear from other people that have done it.... Does it work..

I realized that it was restriction... I am so crazy at times.. I just have to laugh at myself.......

I want to start off by saying I went to the Dr's and I lost 5.2 pounds.. "Yes"... Today was, (is) my birthday and It was not too good. I spent my birthday sitting at the hair salon for 7hr. My sister asked me to take her goddaughter there and I didn't realize that I was going to be there all G**D*** day. Do you not no that I ate so many cookies, that I stopped counting after 10... I was under a lot of stress. It was post to be my birthday and in my eyes it wasn't... I was mad. I think I

And that is a Plus... any idea to how to count calories properly..

I've recieved my 3rd fill, I think I'm doing good. It seems like every month I loose about 4-5 pounds. I want to do better than that. I want to loose 19lbs in 3wks. I no that may seem crazy, but I'm going to try. My 1st target weight is 300lbs. And I am 19lbs from that. Am I pushing myself too hard?????

2nd filled

I received my 2nd fill on Tuesday the 13th. I felt the restriction, but now 4 days later I don't feel it. I talked to my doctor and she told me that I should eat my meats first and than my food, because the meat will full you up faster. Is that True?..... Maybe I'm not eating enough meat to make me full.. :wink2:

love / weight

This might sound crazy but, my man friend I've been with for 9+ years. Says, if I loose too much weight, he will leave me. What is the problem with this. Just because I want to look better and feel better about myself. Why do men think that we will change. I've talked to several lap band women about this and almost half say their men say the same-thing.... Whats up with this?.... :biggrin:
